CVE-2026-72488

Estado: RecibidaAlta (7.8)—

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

soundwire: fix bug in sdw_add_element_group_count found by syzkaller

The original implementation caused an out-of-bounds memory access in the sdw_add_element_group_count for-loop when i == num.

To fix this error, the function now checks for existing rate/lane entries in the group(a function parameter) using a for-loop before adding them.

No functional changes apart from this fix.
